Ninja

Picture a ninja in your mind.
He’s wearing a black jumpsuit with a scarf for a mask and swords on his back, isn’t he?
Well, that’s wrong.
Ninja are supposed to be invisible, so they’re not going to wear something that identifies them as an assassin.
Instead, they’re going to wear ordinary clothes so they blend in with the scene.
A suit in a business setting… shorts and a t-shirt at a casual setting…
And, yes. A Mickey Mouse costume at Disneyland.
Or, so I thought.
But in my defense, it’s hard to read the intent of those freaky assholes.

One thought on “Ninja”

  1. If I was on the jury, I wouldn’t vote to convict. Those costumed characters are unnerving.

    I enjoyed both this story and “The Rose.” I’m not sure I’d spend my last days listening to your podcast from the beginning, either, but maybe her thinking was: as long as there are more stories, I can’t die. And there are always more stories. It’s in the URL!
